I sell it for $4 a dozen, but only in bigger quantities. ( three dozen or more ). Lots of folks get a bushel for freezing.

I haven't seen a y local for sale yet. The early stuff around here is brought in from down south somewhere and tastes like crap.

I'll wait for some local or mine comes on.

5/$ a dozen here

Went to our local farmers market yesterday. They wanted $10 a dozen. To say the least they didn't sell much . Normal $6 a dozen

I do not sell sweet corn, but raise 30 to 40 dozen ears each year. I do not know how the farmer comes out on it by selling any of it for less than 5 dollars a dozen, and at that he is not making much on it.

Nothing is free !!

$5 a dozen is a small profit? If you plant say 24,000 plants per acre and have poor germination and ear set and get 80% or 19,200 ears and lets say 25% of those ears are not suitable to sell but usable for you. That gives you gives you 14,400 ears to sell or 1200 dozen at $5 per dozen is $6K. I think I could do a bit better than a small profit on that acre and still have plenty to eat and feed to chickens, hogs or give away.

5 for 12

$6/dozen or $25/bushel(60 ears). $15 for half a bushel. Feels too cheap sometimes...

I thought Gary meant field corn. Field corn is $6.12 per bushel in Broadway,VA.

$.75 an ear around here.
